Medium Risk

plan_list

List the most recent plans for an authenticated user. Returns up to limit plans (default 10, max 50) newest-first, each with plan_id, state, progress_percentage, created_at (ISO 8601), and a prompt_excerpt (first 100 chars). Use this to recover a lost plan_id or to review recent activity.

Part of the PlanExe server.

plan_list can modify PlanExe data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use plan_list to create or modify resources in PlanExe. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call plan_list repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach PlanExe.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access plan_list gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so plan_list only ever does what you allow.

What does the plan_list tool do? +

List the most recent plans for an authenticated user. Returns up to limit plans (default 10, max 50) newest-first, each with plan_id, state, progress_percentage, created_at (ISO 8601), and a prompt_excerpt (first 100 chars). Use this to recover a lost plan_id or to review recent activity.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the PlanExe MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on plan_list? +

Register the PlanExe MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for plan_list: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches PlanExe. Nothing to install.

What risk level is plan_list? +

plan_list is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit plan_list? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the plan_list rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block plan_list completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for plan_list. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides plan_list? +

plan_list is provided by the PlanExe MCP server (https://mcp.planexe.org/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every PlanExe tool call.
